It's a River Day!

A hot summer day is a great time to examine benthic macroinvertebrates!


Snack time / lunch time in the shade.


A short "recess" before we get to work

Picking all the "bugs" off the net.


Recording the data.


And when the work is done, it's time to play (again).


Group jump into the river.
